An emotive tribute to a friend whom now gone you surely understood better than most as stated in that powerful last line. A moving read.

Great welcoming of spring in your words today. Bring on warmer times.
Excellent final line, for hope keeps us all happy and encourages forward looking.

The Wood is Green
Saxon Crow said:

Lol. A meagre attempt today compared to some of the amazing poems I have read so far today on the subject of Spring. It must be in the air. Alas, no philosophical reading at present. Who are you reading out of interest?
Are we living beings or beings that are alive? Hmmmm.......

The Wood is Green
orchidee said:

A fine write Crow.
You reading a bit of philosophy too, as I am? Yep, the wood is green, or soon will be. Well, it is already, if it\'s evergreen trees!
A paper had a section: \'Dept Of The ******** Obvious\'. It listed things, like from this book: \'We are living beings\'. Well, most of us look alive anyway. lol.

The Illusion of Now
orchidee said:

You there \'now\' or were you there \'then\'? Is it today or tomorrow now? I\'m a confused laddie! lol.

The Illusion of Now
Goldfinch60 said:

Looking back into the past certainly shows a simpler life where people communicated with each other in a more meaningful way.
Our past has led us to what we are now be it good, bad or indifferent but I am happy with my now.

orchidee said:

A fine write Crow. I got me own problem. I never see \'tomorrow\'. By the time it gets here, it\'s \'today\'! Hmmm. lol.

The Illusion of Now
LIGHT WARRIOR said:

Awesome work here.. Although i do believe in living in the now..but your write reminded me that reflection on positivity from the past is a wonderful tool to use when we discern our decisions in the now..the future should be a surprise..not planned out..it never goes our way if we try to do so...there is nothing wrong w reflection..as lo g as it doesn\'t result in apprehension to move forward in the now..but all in all..great piece..enjoyed

The Illusion of Now
dusk arising said:

Playing devils advocate here.... how useful is the past? What do we actually learn from the past. How to kill people more efficiently?

But you are right, we hardly own today and tomorrow is just a hope.

Saxon Crow said:

Thanks Dove. You said it my friend it encompasses what we have KNOWN, not what we have now.

Mediocre Days of Living
orchidee said:

Does it sound dull or bring to say \'Well, if nothing changes, nothing will surprise us; we\'ll know just where we are?!\' Yet it can be contentment, as Goldie says.

Mediocre Days of Living
Goldfinch60 said:

You are obviously content in your life and contentment in life is what we all seek. Enjoy your life SC, each moment is so precious.

The idea made me chuckle, then I thought, hell yeah.. an extra ear wouldn\'t go amiss would it … ear ear

Mediocre Days of Living
dusk arising said:

Reads like the current page of my life story SC.
Yet still my mind has its adventures to play with though largely restricted by expense and of course the weather.

A pleasant, relaxing read both retrospective and forward looking.

Tone Deaf?
Goldfinch60 said:

Two things SC
1 - I believe I know a great deal about music but the more i get to know about music the more ignorant about it I realise I am.

2 - \"So much music - so little time\"

Apart from four ears I need and infinite extension in my life to try and hear it all.

Tone Deaf?
dusk arising said:

Bring on surround sound...... such an eerie thought though. where would you have these extra ears..... bear in mind they needn\'t be on show above the neckline. You could have one under each arm with earplugs discreetly auditioning music new to you whilst your original ears seek pleasure in old favourites.

I think its plain to see i am warming to your idea already.... hmmm another pair of eyes so i could watch gigs/concerts that i\'d missed too.... an extra larynx so i could sing along too..... i\'m getting carried away

Dammit look what you\'ve started.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks SC for an interesting concept ~ an improvement on a key Human Sense ~ HEARING ! Right now Im doing TWO things simultaneously ! Listening to RADIO 3 (Bruckner - Symphony No. Eight ) and composing a Reply to your Poem. They dont clash because ONE is AURAL and the OTHER VISUAL & MENTAL i.e I couldnt watch TV and do your Poem justice @ the same time.
I love SPOTIFY but could not listen to BRYN TERFEL & BRUCKNER symultaneously unless I was a SIAMESE TWIN with FOUR EARS & (importantly) TWO seoarate BRAINS. You imply this in Line 2 No 1. Set of Ears wired to BRAIN 1. No 2. Set of Ears wired to BRAIN 2. If Im listening to the RADIO and my MOBILE RINGS ~ I have to MUTE the RADIO while I take the call. But I can watch FOOTBALL on TV (with the sound off) and have a phone conversation at the same time because I am using two different senses SIGHT & SOUND simultaneously just as when Im listening to a Football Commentary on TV. In the same way I can read Dickens and listen to Bruckner at the same time.
In short you are not just wanting MORE volume with your four EARS ~ You want to hear the BEATLES & BEETHOVEN played simultaniously without interfering with each other ! For that you would also need TWO BRAINS ! I have this vision of you with an upper & lower set of ears ~ each with separate headphones plugged into your separate Brians one BRAIN allowing you to enjoy YESTERDAY and the other BEETHOVENS 5th ~ AMEN ~ The MINDS BOGGLE !

Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS (Brainwise)
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡

Are you sure two more ears will be enough?

Wonderful write SC, those tears can appear in many surprising ways.

One is forced to wonder sometimes, but in this instance, there can be no mistaking.. Nicely penned my literary friend....

dusk arising said:

Hmmm you seem to be pointing a finger in a certain direction... but.
There\'s more to that poet than you ascribe him here.

Today yours is a well composed piece which i hope is not found to be distressing or annoying to the subject.
